Summary
  1. "Twenty years ago, it seemed as though modern art had exhausted its energies, and was dying of a slow anaemia. Then, as by miracle, the art of a remote, misunderstood and despised era appeared above the horizon, and all was changed. In a time incredibly brief the pent-up energies were released, a new and intense vitality appeared in all the realms of aesthetic endeavour, and european art, which had appeared to be withering, bloomed once more."--Page [4] of cover.
